I used a cool mouse today... 



I enjoyed this mouse, and even now as I reach to get move my mouse, I end up positioning my hand in the patented hand-shake style this mouse promotes.

I realized there are a couple of weird things that I enjoy with no particular useful or explainable reason. It's like when people want to wear the latest fashion, or drive the newest version of the car they love, except mine aren't so much about "looking cool." It's something intrinsic and odd.

I enjoy computer peripherals.
- I love looking at mice at the store. I reallly think I should they should have some wipes there, since I'm sure everyone and their mom touches every mouse almost Monk-like as they pass them. I am currently using an whatever Kensington Optical mouse -- with it's frilly side rubber design, non-ergonomic with a cord. On occassion (read: when it works) I use the Microsoft Optical Cordless Duo, a beast of a mouse with it's ergo-cordless design, but sometimes I feel like I just enjoy a simple corded-works-all-the-time mouse. This vertical mouse looks like fun, and I'm tempted to get a laser mouse, just to have an excuse to say laser more often.

I enjoy left-handedness.
- It's some weird personal interest of mine -- I like realizing people are left-handed and I like left-handed stuff. My character in Fight Night Round 2 and 3 are all left-handed. To the point, where I can't play right-handed characters (a lot of punches require certain motions; I'm used to the power hand being left now, and my leading hand being my right).

I'm just a nerd.
